“I’m a newer listener and just getting more into home theater. Ara and Braden are fantastic hosts with a great rapport and break everything down in an understandable and entertaining way. I’ve already learned quite a bit from the show. Highly recommended!”

“This is an amazing podcast, they have been going strong for a long time. The two personalities work well together, and you have to listen to them to understand. They just cover so much, and it varies on what the news is. Brayden has caused me to buy many a TCL Rocky tv. Lol”

“Been listening since episode 4 or 5. Also a Patreon member. First, there are NO ads. This is just two guys taking about something they love and enjoy. Been fun to listen as the families have grown up and how home tech have evolved over the last 3 decades. Yeah, in its 3rd decade.”
